Chapter 47: The Great Martyr
When things go wrong, there must be demons.
"I always feel that although Iwasu is ruthless, this matter may not be too easy." Di Mara had long been suspicious, "The bandits can use evil magic and know how to make golems, how can they be stupid enough to let him control and give him his life to fight?"
"It may not be as simple as it seems," Vincent made a bold guess, "maybe the bandits did it on purpose......
The old leader was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it, he quickly showed a solemn expression.
No wonder something so strange happened, if the bandits wanted to use Iwawhisker in the first place......
"I think your lord is right, the bandits may really be using Iwasu as a traitor," Kalul interjected at this time, "Iwasu is also my uncle, although he used to be irritable, but he was not so cruel and crazy, but after coming into contact with those evil people, he completely changed."
"It's the effect of the demon fetus, and we've dealt with this thing more than once." Vincent remembered the disgusting black substance in the golem, and made an assertion, "It should be that Iwawhisker was planted by the cultists, so he eventually lost his mind and eventually became an arrogant monster."
This time, Iwasu thought that the bandits were on the first layer and he was on the fifth layer, but in fact, the cultists who really controlled the situation among the bandits were in the atmosphere.
Regardless of the final success or failure, the Freedom Cult can hide behind the scenes, putting the blame for killing and setting fires onto the dwarves.
If Lord Vincent had been a reckless and irascible man, and in the face of such betrayal and stubbornness, perhaps he would have wiped out the mountain dwarves indiscriminately - and of course Iwawhisker would have suffered on his own.
"He turned into a monster, maybe it was part of the cultists' plan." Vincent further deduced, "But I really didn't expect that there was another way to do the Golem, and I always thought that the Golem was a pure combination of mechanical and magic."
"I've vaguely heard that the Cultist's golems, although they have similar shells, need to be controlled by people with great negative spiritual powers, what do they call such strange things......" Karol tried to recall the words he had heard, "It seems to ...... It's like it's called the Great Martyr......
The Great Martyr?
Hearing this title, the demon lord couldn't hold back.
"Mere cultists, neither great, nor martyred, nor holy, should be called by such a name...... Vincent finally held back a laugh and concluded, "No, I'm going to share this funny thing with my friends in the church."
But jokes aside, the danger of this matter is real.
The original Vincent didn't expect that the cultists had also mastered some of the techniques about the Golem, and the degree of completion was relatively high, and after receiving the support of the dwarf technology, he actually made a test machine.
Despite being a group of bandits who killed people and set fire to seize the territory, Iwasu was still very cautious in the creation of golems, and did not put all his eggs in one basket, forcing his nephew to hand over the dwarves' secret methods, and on the other hand, trying to create a special golem of the cult.
It is not yet known what the purpose of this is, maybe to compare performance, or just not sure enough to try all possible methods.
However, Iwasu must be selfish, and the people who are controlled by the demon fetus are not normal, and the powerful distorted consciousness in his heart is magnified, making him choose the path of self-destruction.
In order to become invincible, Iwasu chose himself as the sole master of the Golem, and used his position as the leader to constantly nourish and strengthen himself by relying on the demon fetus cultivated from others, and constantly improve his evil power.
Therefore, this time the bandits came prepared, in addition to verifying the unmanned scheme mastered by the mountain dwarves, they also engaged in an outrageous version of manned.
This unbelievable way is actually tailor-made for cultists who have turned into monsters.
Although the driver's state is not decent, the golem does not need special high-grade magic stones to provide magic power, but it is just a tailor-made method for high-level cultists to be able to control the golem by relying on their own evil power and huge body.
In order to gain power, Iwasu willingly became a test subject, also
It's sad and shameful to have been enjoying it all the time, thinking that you have gained the power of the gods that are unparalleled in the world.
The reason why he couldn't withstand the violent beating of the silver dragon, in addition to Kalul making trouble behind his back, another reason was that the golems that the cultists could drive were relatively small, small enough to be hung up and beaten directly.
On the whole, this plan does not require special magic stones, and the cult cadres who are crazy into demons need as many as they want, and there are still a bunch of dead ones, as long as they find a place to produce their shells, and are willing to invest in consumables, the cultists are enough to cause great damage.
The reason why it can't be built directly now is because this design of unknown origin has many shortcomings, and it needs to be optimized with the help of the genuine version of the mountain dwarf.
Compared to the magic-driven first machine, the second machine carried by Iwasu is really unbearable.
Of course, if there are conditions, it is better not to do performance tests with full-level dragons on the testing machine.
"How much iron does it cost to make a golem?" Vincent asked a substantive question, "In the past few years, the town has not traded with the outside world, the surrounding villagers have been expelled, and the remaining inventory has been consumed by the golem, which is not a small amount."
"A normal golem would cost at least 500,000 pounds, this is the result of my deliberate weight loss, no matter how light it is, it won't stand up." "Half a million pounds of iron," said Kalul, "means that at least one and a half million pounds of ore will be mined."
"I really don't know how many people have died from exhaustion, bandits and cultists are deeply guilty." "The descendants of Darding don't like to work in a mine full of ghosts, and we're not cruel......
"The undead are not a problem, our people will recruit them as mine supervisors and security officers," Vincent had already planned, "With their help, we can solve many problems that cannot be solved by living people in production."
Undead and corpses have never been a problem for demons, but it's a pity that so much iron has been invested in golems.
One hundred and fifty pounds of ore, and half a million pounds of iron and steel, made such a thing.
Even if there were no dragons beyond people's imagination, two hundred pounds of nitro explosives could have been taken care of, and the production of nitro explosives in Silver Dragon Castle had already been mass-produced.
In the face of hot weapons, the cost performance of the golem is too low, and it is okay to deal with the conventional cold weapon army, but in the face of the new army that Vincent plans to build, it is not a huge threat.
Precious metal can't be wasted on such things, but the Golem's technology isn't useless.
In places where technology is not developed enough, and all kinds of strange forces and gods, such as magic, sorcery, gods and ancestor worship, can prevail, it is too sad to hang yourself on the tree of technology.
Even if it is a cultist's plan, it cannot be said to be absurd, but at least it provides a fresh way of thinking and verification.
The principle of the "Martyr" engine is very confusing, but the creature directly drives the golem and vigorously produces miracles, the method is simple and crude, and it is not impossible for the demons to achieve it.
The traditional giant golem is too expensive, too large and inappropriate, it is difficult to even descend the mountain, and its practical value is very limited, but if it is reduced......
yes, why not shrink it?
